Leaves caught in action are so awesome! Gosh, thinking about the land he's sitting in just makes we wonder more about the world of Everblue I noticed the way Ten fits into the lineless background, almost like an animation frame! The gradually colored lines on his hands, nose and bandanna make the transition very smooth :] Aaagghh and your bright-sunlight color schemes just keep getting better and better!

Ooh- and speaking of Chapter 1, when do we get to see the redone pages of said chapter? I'm excited to see what those pages would look like in color

Haha, it's gonna be a while . I'm planning to re-ink them all before I even try to touch colors. I seem to be changing things I do every other week XD, but this way at least the lines will be consistent the whole way through.

Goggles... didn't his mom have goggles? Aiko, or something? :0As for the nature... a lot more ground than there is water... boats... aaaaahh, my brain wants me to go somewhere with this but I don't know what! But I see mini paper planes, too... /mind explodes

And Ten's hair seems to be more dark-dark blue than black, and his eyes are more of a very light/soft blue than gray. How very peculiar- /shot

Anyway, love this~ It's very calm and a lot more fluid and soft than the first one. Love the tree and clouds, also~ AND THE SHADING. I WANT YOUR SHADING

Yes, she did have goggles :]. I changed her name to Taka though -- Aiko was a bit too commonly used XD.

Haha, there are certain aspects of the story and the world I haven't introduced quite yet. This cover will begin to make more sense in a couple chapters . Oh, and Ten's hair and eyes here are more a result of the bluish shadows/highlights I applied than anything else XD

Let me see if I can figure them out. When he was a child, he dreamed of flying so that one day he put on his flight goggles and leaped out of that tree with homemade wings and was only saved by how soft the grass was. Now he's older and will actually take to the skies.

That's the best I can figure, right now. By the way, are those paper airplanes? Someone folded an entire fleet!

Awww he's got the grass all between his fingers... though that title seems an ominous one for a pilot thanks to Firefly.. the rest of it is so very peaceful! --And hey, the Everblue stuff is what I'm most looking forward to! ; p Thanks again for the adorable Ten sketched book from Sakura Con! ^.^

Yes, I was from artist alley! And you're very welcome, it's really adorable. Whenever the other chapters are ready to print I'll be back for the others! Um... on that subject if at some point in the (likely distant >.>) future, would you mind if I made an Everblue doll? ^.^;
